"This past week Valve brought SteamVR on Linux into public
beta. With watching the constant hype around VR on Windows, I was quite
excited to finally give VR a try with having lined up an HTC Vive for
testing and currently Oculus or others not offering current Linux
support. I was thinking that I would have some large GPU/driver
comparisons and such completed this weekend, but once actually setting
up the hardware and software, I realized that wasn't going to be
feasible in such short time. So for those interested in the Linux VR
space, here are some of my first impressions and why I would consider
the current SteamVR more like an alpha release than beta, just yet
another struggle Linux gamers face, and another obstacle to overcome if
Linux is to be a more serious competitor to Windows in the gaming space."
